[QUOTE="milesrf, post: 1399891, member: 13629"] You should be aware of the dawn phenomenon, also called Somogyi effect if it occurs but not near dawn. If your blood glucose drops too low, your liver will start dumping any glucose it has stored, and also starts converting proteins into glucose. This may or may not stop when your blood glucose rises enough. What is the dawn phenomenon that some people with diabetes experience? Can anything be done about it?
